Weekly Links (3/2/2012)

No culture in history has ever embraced moral relativism and survived. Our own culture, therefore, will either (1) be the first, and disprove history’s clearest lesson, or (2) persist in its relativism and die, or (3) repent of its relativism and live. There is no other option. (Peter Kreeft, The Philosophy of Jesus)

by Stephen Rodgers

Let’s just jump straight into the links, shall we?

  • Creation.com has a great new resource out called “Genesis Verse-by-Verse.” It works pretty much like you might expect it would, creating an index of the first 11 chapters of Genesis down to the verse level, and then linking back to more than 8,000 articles that are relevant to that particular passage. It’s a great resource for that section of Scripture.
  • Since it’s now March, there’s a new edition of Tabletalk out entitled “The Self-Centered Life.” If you’re not reading Tabletalk, you should start.  If you don’t know where to start, how about our chronological index?
  • The quote from Peter Kreeft was actually inspired by an article in The Journal of Medical Ethics that recently argued in favor of “after-birth abortions.”  Sadly, this is actually intended to be serious rather than some sort of reductio ad absurdem.  I’ve updated the Abortion Hub Post with some materials.
  • Tim Challies is a rather prolific blogger, and recently started to explore the idea of visual representations of certain Biblical ideas or themes.  We’ve already benefited from this by shamelessly appropriating one of the visualizations for the BOB logo (not to worry, he allows that). However, I wanted to pass on some of his other visualizations for your benefit as well.

The Order of Salvation
The Attributes of God
The Books of the Bible
Philippians 4:8
Awaiting the Messiah

Alright, that’s all for this week.  See you Sunday!
